The Coming Revviution in Viplomacy. The just appreciation of the trae pusition of the British question in India that has been ex- hibited by the press in this country, and particu- jarly by the Heratp, has been received in Eng- Jand with a lively feeling of surprise and gratifi cation, which is angmented in no emall degree by the contrast it presents with the tone of pub- lie opinion here during the late Eastern war, In discussing the cuuses that have led to this favorubie expression of feeling by the American people, the English journalists have not risen to & recognition of its irue cause, They attribute it variously, to a calculation of what America would gain or love by the disgrace and ruin of Engiand; toan American sympathy with Clive avd his filibuster contemporaries; to w national appreciation of Tastings, Wellesty and other vigorous manifest destinarians ia India; to a cor- rect judgment of each other, through the pos- session of like tendencies and common language; and to the natural instincts of a ruling race, which knows that itself, or any otner like it, “is not easity dispossessed of an ancient dominion.” Bat while it has not recogaized the true cause of the present sympatby of Ame- rica with England, the British press bas been led by its gratefui surprise to a deep and philosophi- cal appreciation of our position as a nation as regares this continent, and to the utterance of sentiments which, if honestly aad truly. advo- cated, must be prodective of the highest and Most permanent good results. It was the ignoring of tbis position of the United States, aod the un- wise announcement by a British minister on the floor of Parliament, that the union of the Eng- | lisb and French Cabinets contemplated not only | a union of their policy in the war then existing. but that it would be extended over the whole | world, that completely changed the popular feel- ing in this country toward the contestants in the late war in the East. The sentiment of self-re- spect and the instinct of selfdefence led us to rject at once suck an unwise, impracticable and selfish combination. In the present stress of Eogland’s position in | India, we have not been led to the expression of our friendly sympathy by any of the sordid mo- tives or limited causes above cited. It has ema- vated from a mach higher and nobler source.

It is because we contemplate the position of ourselves and the nations of Europe from this high stand that we sympathise with England in ber present trouble, and not only wirh that she may come soon and rafely out of it, but are ready to extend her @ helping hand shouid she come to such sore need.

A few words will make our thoaght more clear. There are four great living nations leading the advaucing columns of civilization, and each has a developement and a mission distinct from the others, bat ali bleoding and barmonizing in the one great parpose, which is the advanve of all. England, cribled ia her island home, can only carry on her developement upon the fea, and through colonial establishments. This she has done with an energy and success that pred no eulogy.

The steamer Oregon, that formerly ran on the Hudson river, wae towed to Quarantine yesterday, and received on board the passengers of the steam- ship Iiinois. The latter steamer is to be thoroughly if assigned the ta-k of assimilating the progress of civilization so that it can be §pr@@ shroagn ber pecubiar forms and facilities, v4 the whole extent of Northern and Central Asia. And to this country belongs the task of marshalling the communities: of America and leading them fo coneonsnce with the world’s great progress, These daties are all instinctive and self-imposed in these mations, and it is only when they leave their proper sphere of action and unwisely endea- cleaned and fumigated, and then to come up to the city. All the passengers of the Illinois will be re- quired to remain on the Oregon till the Health Officer deems it pradent to allow them to proceed to New York. The fever of which the passengers are sick is Chagres fever, and not yellow fever. ‘We publish elsewhere a full report of the proceed jnge of the Free State Mass Meeting and Convention recently heid at Grashopper Falls, Kansas. It will be seen that the meeting, after much discussion, concluded to participate in the October election, and that Marcus J. Parrott received @ unanimous nomination for Delegate to Congress. G.Oor correspondent at St. Pani, Minnesota, states that the constitutional conventions closed their ses sions on the 29th alt, after deliberating for seven weeks. The constitutions produced by both bodies were identical. They were regarded as fully meet- ing the requirements of the public welfare, ana par- ties were organizing for the election of officers in October.

It hae enddenly abandoned all the old rentimentalism of Palmerston and the statesmen of the bygone dark ages of international politics, and taken acommon sense practical view of the question. It euddenly awakens to the fact that “Englishmen may look without jealousy or re- gtet on the progress of the American Union to wards the southern continent;” and we rrjoice that it bas dove so.

And we wish to see the press of Eagiand and of all Borope, not only alive to this truth but awake to the great mission which is opened before it. It knew what it wee called to do in the late struggle in the East, and it applied all ite energies to the task. It broke down the fendalistic nepotian of the army; it exposed the inefficiency of the commiseoriat: it drove ignorance, imbecility and “secresy for the public good’ in diemay from their bigh places; it infused new life into the nation, and brought out all its powers, Never was @ contest prosecuted with such vigor; the prese, by ite sole exertions changed the whole ‘ert of war. The truth of all thie will be doubly evideot in the present contest in India, and Eog- land will rejoice that ite free press drove old fogyiem trom the War Office. Let it now join us, and drive it from the Foreign Office. We do not mean men, but measures. It mat- tere littl? who rules if they rule right. But this old toily of secret diplomacy and intrigue against the fair and open banded advance of each nation in its true developement, must be rooted out. Toe thinking and governing mind of England will coon recognise that there is no conflict be- tween European and American civilization, if the prers of both countries is truo to its mission. A epirtt of mutual emulation shonld exist, and it will urge each on, A free and high toned press is the only proper diplomatic corps to discuss in- tcrvational affairs; and such a press will soon make as great change in diplomacy as it has effected in theart of war. Leave social forms and questions to be discussed and settled by every natiou to its own liking. Hyery man can regu- sate bis own household better than can astranger; and 60 itis with nations. On such a platform, which can only be constructed and sustained by a free and bigh toned press, the United States, Envland, France and Russia may all stand in harmony, to the peaceful and enduring progress of (he world. Rerorm mw Ramroap Manacement.—We re- publish the appeal of Mesum.

As these eminent merchants say, there is no reason why the Michigan Southern Company sbould be so much worse off than its neighbors, unless ite finances have been grossly and shame- fuliy mismanaged during a long period of time. The way to find out the true character of the past and to secure the best yaarantece for the future is to elect entirely new men to the di- rection—men who can afford to tell us the truth about what was done before their time, and who have character enough to hold out some guaran- tee that frauds and trickeries will not be the or- der of the day under their régime. And the way to hide the past, and to doomthe concer to speedy and utter ruin and desolation, | is to elect the old managers, who have proved, on the one hand, their incompetency to work the road profitably, and, on the other, their unwil- lingness to work it honestly. Stockholders may easily decide between the two. * Tur Tammany Hats.

Our impression is that the chief mischief-maker and traitor in the camp ie Daniel E Sickles; and that, aided hy the folly, ignorance and stupidity of euch bungling managers as Sanders, Ryndera aod Hart, this man Sickles keeps our democratic tactions by the ears, inside and outside of Tam- many Hall. This Mepbistophiles of the party was last win- ter cheek by jowl with the Seward oligarchy at Albany, rometimes voting with them, sometime® against them; but always, when wanted, secret- ly playing into their handa * In the late squub- bles between the metropolitan and manici- pal police authorities this very man Sickles might have been foand in the back rooms occu- pied by euch emoorate as A. Oakey Hall, Gen. Ha’), Recorder Smith aud their official associates und advisers Still, this double dealing Daniel E- Sickles contrived to get himself appointed as the counsel in the matter of the Street Commission- et case of Deviin against Conover, and we bave reason to believe that the object of Sickles in this movement wae to betray his client and verve bis adversary, and that he did betray the cause of Devlin, and did play the spy in behalf of the Conover party. It strikes an, therefore, that the first step re quired towards the reunion of the democracy is the expulsion of Sickles from the negotiations on any side of the question, or in behalf of any faction, great or «mall. Suppose they try it? Newsparer Scaxpars.—We have had occasion eoveral times of tate to animadvert with severity upen the course purtued by certain of our cotem poraries in reporting indecent trials, and indalg- ing in tndelicate comments upon the evidence We regret to say that among these journals the Tri’nne bas been the most conspicuous for raking up filth from any and every quarter, and parad- ing it in the moet offensive manner before the eyes of its readers. Hardly a day paesos but the Tr#une contains some law report or prurient tory which no decent man would like to have within reach of his wife aod danghter. Yeeterday’s 7rilune, for instance, contained an elaborate account of a divorce case, with the nar- rative of the adultery which led to the divorce, the pictore of the scene when the parties were detected in flagrante delicto, an elaborate deserip- tion of their dress and personal appearance on that occasion, and finally their names, and the addreaces of the bouses of assignation where they were accustomed to meet. Now what good purpose could euch an article as this serve? It might tickle the fancy of eome worn out sensualist; it might guide some evil minded persons to houses of assignation; but whom could it benefit? Wherein, indeed, do such descriptions as this differ from the articles in the obscene papers whose suppression the Tribune always describes with such sympathy. A father who, reading such articles, could leave the Tribune within reach of his daughters ought to be scouted from society. Mr. Bucwanan’s Kansas Lerrer—A Bos- SHELL AMONG THE AarraTors.—The Kansas let- ter of Mr. Buchanan seems to have fallen like a bombshell among the agitators of “bleeding Kansas,” if we may judge from ite paralyzing effects upon the anti-administration organs of this metropolis. To be sure, we have the five hundredth repetition of the same old siory of “bogus Legislatures” and “border ruftian appotnt- ments,” &c., from the Tribune; but our next best croaker of “border raffian” frauds, usurpations and atrocities—the Zvening Post—sinks into a piti- ful whine of the violation in this letter of Mr. Buchanan’s of that sense of official dignity which ehould keep him aloof from the political squab- bles of the day, however great the provocation to enter the arena. But Professor Silliman—a 'arned profeseor, too, on primary. tertiary, pre-Adamite, Saurian and other gevlogical formations—with bis foriy- two Connecticut clergymen at his back, electing themselves as special expounders of the conati- tution, the laws of the Jand and the decrees of God Almighty, addreesed their memoriai to the President as if in expectation of an answer, and they have got it—that is all It is something more, perhaps, thaa they expected; but as they charged the Presi- dent with the violation of his official oath in his administration of Kansas affairs, the temptation on his part to give these clerical politicians a wholesome lesson was too strong and the oppor- tunity too inviting to be resisted. He has, there- fore, given them’ their answer, and defined his position so frankly and plainly that they can have no further doubts as to where he stands or what he means todo. What more do they want? What more could they ask? The Times, which bas undertaken the thankless task of serving two political masters—W. H, Seward and Governor Waiker—at the same time, echoes the whine of the Post, that this Kansas letter of Mr. Buchanan is “undignified, uncalled for «nd ipjadicious.” But if a call from forty odd political clergymen of Comecticut may not be considered a call, we should like to know what constitutes a call to which the Presideat may re- ply without offence to his dignity. We think that the call of these reverend politicians was a very ‘oud call and a very impudent call; and that the President, without compromising his dignity in the least, has modestly bat firmly put astop to the impudence of these self-conceited expounders of politics and religion. We bave not yet been favored with the tremen- dous views of the redoubtable Chevalier Webb oa this admirable Kansas manifesto of the President But the Chevalier Webb for come days past has been so befogged and muddled with the sufferings ot the lame ducks and financial stool pigeons of Wall street that he bas had no mind for the discussion of Kaneasaffairs. In fact, this Kansas letter of the President has left the Chevalier and all our nigger-worthipping agitators without a leg to stand upon, and we are confident that the excellent effects of this good letter will continue and extend, North aud South, until this Kansas im~ broglio is settled, pro-slavery or no slavery, by her admission into the Union as a sovereign State.
